My First Macro Post

I was out being "mamarazzi" with my kids in the backyard, and as they climbed up onto the deck of our play set, they noticed this "bee" on the slide. My husband (a CPP and fellow Dgrinner) has been urging me to try different genres of photography since I've started to shoot in manual mode (about 5-6 months) to see what I can capture. So before they went flying down, I tried my first macro shot. C&C most welcome!
Thanks for looking!

I like the geometry of the wings and legs. They are quite well defined against a uniform background.

I have been practicing some other macro shots (will definitely keep doing so), and will post any "keepers" I'm lucky enough to capture...I appreciate your advice.
Thanks for taking the time to look!

This was one of the only shots where that symmetry was evident; the majority of the time, it was trying to get a grip on the slide to stop moving around. I was lucky that the temperature was only about 45 degrees so the bug moved slowly, which helped to minimize blurring. I agree that the BG is very uniform...that's the one thing that really bothered me about the whole series that I took.
Thanks for looking/commenting!
